  • Product Code: eq13469
  • Availability: In Stock

$111.00 $137.64

The MX-40PI Wired Indoor Passive Infrared & Microwave Combination Detector with Immunity from Optex combines the microwave and PIR technologies in attractive, easy-to-install units, and provides unprecedented reliability and detection performance.

The detector incorporates Anti-Crosstalk technology which prevents false alarms caused by microwave interference when several detectors are operating in the same area. It features Quad Zone Logic, which discriminates between human beings and other sources of infrared. This detector also features switchable on/off LED alarm indicator.

Optex utilizes microwave technology in designing the antenna settings for this detector. The result is a non-conventional Anti-Crosstalk System which prevents interference from other microwaves. Reducing interference enables the detector to prevent false alarms typically caused by numerous matching frequencies in one single area. Complete with a noise reduction circuit, the detector is able to cancel noise that enters the antennas, thus eliminating microwave interference. The high-quality, highly reliable detector is the solution for false alarms caused by outside microwave interference.

The MX-40Pl Detector creates an integrated detection area. This enables the microwave detection area to synchronize to the PIR detection area, achieving higher detection performance and preventing errors and false alarms.

With uniform distance between each lens segment and the pyroelectric elements, the spherical lens provides a precise focal length to each of the multiple lens segments. This enables each lens segment to precisely face its detection area and creates detection zones without distortion, achieving a new level in lens design precision. The lens has a spherical design that makes it highly resistant to damage and outside disturbances.

The Noise Reduction Circuit provides reliable performance against outside noise such as electromagnetic interference and noise caused from fluorescent lights. As a result, the possibility of false alarm is greatly reduced.

The highly accurate and reliable detection pattern will maintain its sensitivity through the entire detection area, even in high temperature or low contrast environments. Quad Zone Logic creates an extremely high vertical zone density. These taller zones capture the entire body mass and enable detection of even the smallest temperature contrast against the background. In addition, the vertical detection density has been improved to take into account dead zones created by furniture or partitions.

The MX-40Pl detector allows for a simple 2-step adjustment. Setting the range selector to short or long range detection according to the room size makes adjustment during installation much easier and less time consuming.

The PC board is removable for simple wiring. With the simple use of a screwdriver, a firm tap will easily remove the knockout.

The compact and stylish body matches any interior design without disturbing the decor.

Easy installation and wiring are engineered into this compact housing. The long or short distance selector switch makes microwave area adjustment easy.

Q: 2. Hi guys, My pad says that I have a fault number 2 which means battery of the sensor is low. I removed it to change the battery, however I can not locate the battery. Is there even one? Any idea to help? Cheers

A: This is a hard wired motion sensor, there is no battery. My suggestion is to contact the Alarm installer. Low battery can be the backup battery on your panel. or an RF alarm sensor.

Q: 3. Does the transmitter come with a receiver or do I need to order the receiver separately?

A: This is the transmitter only. You can search on our website for "Optex wireless 2000" and the kit will come up.

A: The enabot Ebo Air Familybot BH #ENEBOA will find its way back to its charging dock from secondary rooms.

Q: 6. what is the input voltage of this device and can it be wired to control 3DC Volts ?

A: The Bosch ISC-BPR2-W12 featues: Current: Alarm/Standby: 10 mA at 12 VDC Operating Voltage: 9-15 VDC

Q: 7. Can the door station be mounted over an existing peephole if battery powered?

A: From what I saw in the installation video, it looks like it needs to be mounted on a wall like you would a doorbell or other WIFI video doorbells.

Q: 8. Can the tablet work work while on the charger?

A: Yes, the screen is meant to be connected to a power supply in order for it to power up and work.

Q: 9. is the td-20u compatible with my old wireless 2000?

[0.3 lb] We recently ordered more Optex Photelectric Detectors.  These devices have protected our facility for a number of years now .... never the slightest problem.  Very high quality product.

[Wired] Replaced Optex 40 X pri with Bosch Blue Line detectors. Bosch is quite a bit more sensitive and gives better coverage. These are great atributes for a good alarm system. Did not use the tamper portion of the detector. I have a 4 wire lead to the detector. Red to plus, black to neg. and the two other leads to the n/c terminals. Polarity is of no concern as you connect the n/c wires.

[No alarm 20 V/m] I purchased the AX-70TN detector to replace an old AX-70T unit installed more than 25 years ago as part of a home security system but had stopped functioning due to age and exposure to our high desert environment. I was very pleased with the B&H free expedited shipping offer - the units actually arrived two days before the promise date. The receiver and transmitter were well-packaged and arrived in perfect condition. Instructions were clear and I had no trouble installing and calibrating the new sensors, which seem to be working perfectly. I noticed several improvements from the previous model, but they were still fully interchangeable. My driveway monitor system is now functional again, and I am very pleased with both the delivery service of B&H and the performance of the detector.

[0.3 lb] I have used these for years. They always work great, and the batteries last many years of continuous duty.
Last month alone, in the early morning, a guy broke into my SuperDuty and tried to steal it. I knew about it right away and chased him off with a shotgun BEFORE he got it. Since the cops will not do anything about him, I had to. He was the same guy who stole my neighbor's SuperDuty the week before. I know this because of everyone's surveillance cameras plainly shows the guy at work in our neighborhood. My neighbor is out his expensive truck and I am not, thanks to these little guys.

[No alarm 20 V/m] These things are the best for anywhere you want to be notified when you have some scum of the earth, like Dirtbag Tweekers, pulled into your driveway, sneeking into your yard, or even in your garage. The 3 different audible tones, offered on the in home monitor, allow you to identify what area of your property that dirtbag is in.

[Indoor] This detector replaced my five year old BX-80 device That developed cracked plastic lenses. This new device with four Active sensors vs two in the older offering, it is by far the best boundary sensor for exterior wall applications, in my opinion. This sensor’s sensitivity clearly meets it’s 40 LF specification and then some. Functions in rain, all temps To sunny 95 degree conditions and fog too! I could have purchased a new Lense cover, however decided to upgrade vs wasting monies on old technology. Buy this, you’ll not be disappointed!

[78 (PIR)] Ordered this product as a replacement for old failed ones. B&H had a better price than the factory and I received them in three days. They are installed and working as required. Thanks for the prompt and courteous service from B&H.
